Dundas BI - System Requirements

Version 6.0.1

1. Overview

Dundas BI is a web-based server application that runs on IIS and either Microsoft SQL Server or PostgreSQL. It can also connect to a variety of other databases and data sources, which may require additional drivers to be installed.

2. Client

Below are the minimum web browser and OS requirements for client-side devices.

5. Installation

Dundas BI requires certain additional software on the server when using Microsoft SQL Server for the application database (no additional software is required when using PostgreSQL). You can download the following installer packages and install them on the server yourself. Or, the Dundas BI installer will automatically download and install them for you if they're not already installed on the system. This requires an active Internet connection.

The user ID and password of an account on your SQL Server instance that has db_create permissions or a usesuper account on PostgreSQL.

Note

After the installation, the SQL Server administrator will require only db_owner permissions. A PostgreSQL administrator will require the CanSelect, CanUpdate, CanInsert, and CanDelete table privileges, as well as the CanCreate database privilege.

The user ID and password of an account to use for the IIS application pool.

A web server port to run Dundas BI on (the installer will choose a default) or an existing website for installing Dundas BI as a virtual directory (the IIS “Default Website” is fine).
